Apple filling shrinks down when cooked. This creates a small gap between the crust, which holds on to the shape it was in pre-cooking because all of the butter basically fries it, and the apple filling which condenses.

Not make a deep dish apple pie with uncooked apples because it ends up making a shitty apple pie, like yours.

Or you know, precook the apples. Its not hard.
